Release process for publishing a new KDevelop version

HowTo

This list explains how to obtain release artifacts.

(all commands are fish commands, adapt as needed)

  • For kdevelop, kdev-python, kdev-php: go to stable branch, don't forget to pull, edit CMakeLists.txt with the new version number. Don't create a tag. Commit and push.
  • Create tarballs and tags with releaseme:
    • set VERSION 5.2.4; for application in kdev-python kdev-php kdevelop; ruby tarme.rb --version $VERSION --origin stable $application; ruby tagme.rb --version $VERSION; end
    • repos on invent.kde.org are not yet supported by tagme.rb it seems, set tag manually: git tag -s -m "Tagging $VERSION" v$VERSION <commit-id>, then git push to invent.kde.org
  • Build AppImage locally, using appimage/README.md in the sources as guide, then sign:
    • gpg2 --armor --detach-sign -o KDevelop-$VERSION-x86_64.AppImage.sig KDevelop-$VERSION-x86_64.AppImage
  • Update version.ini to have the new tarball version and default target, commit and push:
    • kde:craft-blueprints-kde/extragear/kdevelop/version.ini
  • When built, get the new windows installers (needs someone to confirm they work):
  • Upload all of them either using ftp + filing a sysadmin ticket, or directly: see "Self-Uploading to Download Server"

Using ReleaseMe

Setup:

git clone kde:releaseme
cd releaseme
cat README.md

Step 1: tarballing

./tarme.rb --version 5.3 --origin 5.3 kdevelop

Step 2: tagging

./tagme.rb 5.3.0

Rinse & repeat for kdev-php, kdev-python

Upload the tarballs to the KDE FTP and notify the sysadmins:

Also add the sha256sum of the tarballs to the sysadmin ticket; also tell where sysadmins should upload the tarballs.
